Sev Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Hey all! My Lfs sold me “running river rainbows” 2 of them are definitely rainbow fish and the other looks similar to a tetra but I’m new to rainbows so I have no clue. I haven’t seen anything on running rivers and was wondering if it is even possible and how can I tell they are in fact that species (and for the one that looks like a tetra how to tell if it even is a rainbow) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m kind of mad about it but that’s life haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sev Posted September 28, 2021 Author Share Posted September 28, 2021 Late update: sorry I haven’t been on here much just got busy. The weird fish has passed away (idk why all parameters were good) but the “running rivers” still have no color. I added more rainbows to encourage schooling and more comfort.
